Greetings, and TIA for your feedback.

I've been away from the game for awhile...gave my 1990 Toyota p/u truck to my brother which had a fairly nice system that I now miss very much (QTY 2 12" JL subs, Infinity and Polk spkrs, Pioneer, Rockford and ADS amps.)

I really miss the JL subs and am beginning to investigate the possibilities of modifying the midgate and locating a sealed box in the bed which would fire into the cab. I looked at the W7 12 and 13.5 inch subs...someone suggested to me the 13.5 is overkill, and a better option is the 12, which would be less boomy. If I am not conceding anything on the 13.5, I am inclined to go larger, as I am not space constrained. I really want tight, punchy bass though...I listen to all types of music.

I also looked at Hertz 6.5 inch components, and am debating in my head which amps to look at next. Installer I am working with is suggesting Alpine PDX? I am wondering if JL amps are better?

Now I realize there will be a big difference of opinion on whether I am looking at over priced name brands...I just know from experience I LOVED my last pair of JL's. I am open to consider alternative components and amps...just so long as they are clean and of the highest quality. I would rather buy the best than be dissatisfied with lesser caliber gear. Since I don't have kids, I don't have to save for their college tuition. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

You could do the 8" as a front sub on its own amp and use it to bridge/enhance the gap between your 12" in the rear to the midranges

You may or may not like the sound of just dropping into the stock locations but loading into the glass is definitely going to cause some issues...

The Kappa's have a high sensitivity rating of 93 db so the X802-5 would be fine. A good high sensitivity 8" sub in a properly sized box would fit...
